The Clifton clarion., 1887-02-02

FROM the Mining and Scientific Press of January 22nd we clip the following. showing the produo- tions of the copper properties in the Globe district:
 Dr. Tripple, superintendent of the Old Dominion Copper Com pany, at Globe, Arizona, has kind ly furnished us the following data in regard to the run of one of their furnaces for the first eight days of the present month, which will be of interest to all copper-producer. ::
 Tons. Ore smeltcd .i15 Coke consumed. .......... 535 Copper produced (9S tinel. .... S1
 The above shows an average of 51 tons of ore smelted per day, with a consumption of 12.9 per cent of coke per ton of ore, and the ore averaging 19.5 per cent in copper. The last days run was 5 tous of ore, producing within a fraction of F tons of copper.
 The results here given, We may state, are but little above the general average of production from the works mentioned. The above statement Is based upon the operation of one 30-ton water jacket smelter. and indicates ex- traordinary furnace capacity, us well as good management.
 With the stimulus of q well sus- tained advancing market, many new enterprises of this character are DOW being inaugurated, as we'll as many old ones starting mp. that under the stress of low prices had been compelled to sus- pend operations. The many uses 10 which copper is now applied will undoubtedly insure more re- prices to the producers than have prevailed during the past two years and put this great industry upon more stable foot ing.

THE United States Senate with

THE United States Senate with but one dissenting voice passed last week a bill authorizing the President of the United States to defend and protect the rights of American fisherman, and fishing. and trading vessels in specified cases. The measure Is meant as a retaliatory one against Canada, whose continued disregard of the treaty made with the United States in ISIS, has become unbearable. Senator Ingalls, of Kansas charg- ed Great Britain with everything uuholy and unrighteous in con- nection with Canada's misdemean- ors and was particularly handy in the use of adjectives. which how ever, were very descriptive and it is hoped when the Domin- ion government finds ont that the United States can close its railway depOts as well as its ports against Canadian commerce. it will be q little careful how 1t rifles up" the bird of freedom.

 Asherts bill regulating freights and fares within the Territory; which was indefinitely postponed some time ago in the Council has been reconsidered and will no doubt pass in some amended form, do not know the purport as re- gards freight rates but it restricts the passenger rate to 5 cents per mile.
 Bracewell's bill regulating the cleaning of stock cars which had shared the same fate was also re- considered and will no doubt pass.
 Andrews bill of electric tele- sr' pls which repeals the special tax of one dollar per mile and places telegraph lines on the same taxable footing with other proper ty, Doran's bill repeating an act relating to County officers, and which affected only Pinal county, Smiths bill repeating the act au- thorlzing Maricopa to issue bonds, and Bakers bill repeating an act authorizing Yuma to issue bonds, were the only bills passed this week.
 Fishers bill repeating on act creat- ing q contingent expense fund; Gray's act to provide for the selec- ton of jurors in criminal cases, and Wore's act to prevent the un- lawful slaughter. of cattle, were indetinetly postponed, and are not apt to be revived again.
 The Governor appointed as members of the Board of Direc- tors of the insane asylum, John s. Armstrong, Geo. H. Kemper, and E.. H. Hitler; and Ben. Goldwater as member of the Board of Edu- cation of the territorial Normal school, they are all Maricopa men and were all confirmed by the Council.
 The stock interests are we'll re- presented here and the stockmen are holding meetings for the pur- pose of drawing up bills to protect their business and there will no doubt be one or two good stock bills introduced before the ses- sion is over.
 There was complimentary hop given to the 14th last evening by the Prescott Rifles and was quite a gay affair, and altho' I thought they treated the attachees very by not inviting them they treated them very handsome ly after they did get in and did what they could to insure every body good time.
